I just got a Starfighter Superiority Pin.  Could someone tell me what I did to earn it?

Basically, you killed 5 people in a starfighter, and damaged 15 others... to where you got 15 teamwork points for kill assists.

Re: The FS Pilots' Lounge

Wow, [SiD]Tolmodus. You and I are practically cut from the same cloth. tongue

I'm using the Saitek X52 Pro, but haven't been able to spend the time to configure the button layout just right. So I've been jumping back and forth between it and M/K setup here and there. I really feel I need to pickup some good rudder pedals, because having to twist my wrist on the table I'm using right now, is really tweaking my wrist (my bedroom is more like a storage unit than a bedroom; so there's VERY little space; all those damn Star Wars toys big_smile). My table is too small, too high, and quite unstable. lol

I've noticed the trade off between accuracy and responsiveness when adjusting your joystick's sensitivity (one of the reasons I end up switching back to my M/K). Is there any way to configure your settings so you have both? I've found that there's pretty much no middle ground for it. It's either too sensitive, or too sluggish. Maybe I just need to tweak it some more.

Artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity.

Re: The FS Pilots' Lounge

Getting the 10 kills in a starfighter is fairly straightforward. It's the bloody team points I can't get; in fact I often have a negative team score due to suicidal team mates slamming their craft into mine and giving me teamkills!

It was the same in vanilla. Some idiot reverses his FAV into your tank and you get the Team Damage penalty!

I'd appreciate some tips on accruing the necessary team points as a starfighter pilot. There are only kill assists that count as far as I can see.

Re: The FS Pilots' Lounge

Well, what you could do is go for the starfighter pin on Escape from Hoth.  To start, crew with a full transport and you'll get team points from all the kills the thing makes, then switch to an X-Wing with enough time left to rack up your own 10.
